# Add Links to a Site Map

Pages aren't the only things you can assign to your site map. Add internal or external URLs to your site map to customize your navigation menus and breadcrumbs, and achieve greater flexibility and control.

For example, let's say you have a top-level Products page that has a menu based on its child pages. You also want to include a page called Testimonials in the menu, but it's not a child page of the Products page. You can create a site map link that points to the Testimonials page and add the link under Products in the site map. Now when visitors view the Products page, they see a menu consisting of its child pages, along with a menu item that takes them directly to Testimonials.

1. On the Overview tab, click **New** | **Site Map Link**.
2. Enter a name for the link.
3. Enter a URL. URLs can be either relative or absolute, and are case-sensitive.

    Note You can't preview absolute site map links in Site.com Studio unless they include a prefix, such as http:// or https://.
4. Click **Create**.
    
    The link appears at the bottom of the site map.
5. Drag the link to the correct position in the site map.

Note Site map links are automatically included in navigation menus and breadcrumbs. However, you can't set a site map link as a custom root node in a breadcrumb.

- [About the Site Map and Page Hierarchy](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.siteforce_menu_sitemap.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "The Site Pages view on the Overview tab contains the pages and site map links of your website. The Site Map folder reflects the hierarchy or tree structure of your site by housing site pages and links that are included in the site map. When you create pages or site map links, they're automatically added to this folder. The Landing Pages folder houses standalone pages that are excluded from the site map, making it ideal for temporary pages, such as promotional or competition pages.")
